I read this story and all i can say it's very disturbing and creepy. Hope you can handle it. O_O

You see, I am a simple college student living alone in an apartment. I was very enthusiastic about the release of HeartGold/SoulSilver on the states. I have purposely locked myself out of all media and the internet aside for school purposes. That means no **** no /v/, no Bulbapedia, etc.

As I was busy with the school year and being a **** at the time, I wasn't able to buy SoulSilver on launch date. After my school year ended, I ordered SoulSilver on Amazon (sorry, I'm not a **** pirate). However, it would take a week for it to arrive. I decided that during that time, I replay my Crystal version on my Gameboy Color.

However, I realized that long ago, my mom threw it away because I told her the save went dead, and I was very upset about it then. She also threw away my Silver version, so all I have is my Gameboy Color. As such, I set out to Gamestop and bought a used Silver version, as it's the only Pokemon game left that they have for the GBC. Ten dollars - fairly cheap despite it being Gamestop.

I went home and started it up for a nostalgia trip. However, that's where things started getting bizarre, and most likely the reason why you read this.

The Gamefreak logo started up as normal, but it just froze there. I thought the cart was just errored or something, so I turned it off and on. The same thing happened. I tried pressing A and Start over and over, and all of the buttons. Eventually, the logo vanished and there was a black screen for about five seconds. Suddenly, rather than going to the usual menu screen, I was already in the game in a previous saved file, which was odd as I was expecting all of these carts to have been wiped by the poor battery. Either way, I wasn't complaining, as I would have chosen the "Continue" option to see what the previous guy did anyways.

First off, I checked his trainer information. His name was just "..." - He didn't have much originality. I checked his profile and apparently he had 999:99 hours put into the game, with all 16 badges, 999999 Pokedollars and all 251 Pokemon on the Pokedex. Seeing as he apparently had Mew and Celebi logged also, I am guessing he either used a Game Genie or is a really hardcore Pokemon player back then.

I checked his Pokemon to see what badass team he has. To my surprise, I saw 5 Unowns and a sixth Pokemon named "HURRY". I'm thinking that this must be some cruel joke by the person who last played this game, but I decided to check the profiles of those Pokemon anyways. As expected, they were different letters of Unown, all Level 5. I was a bit shaky with my Unown alphabet at the time, but I identified the word spelled out to be "LEAVE".

As for the sixth Pokemon, it turned out to be a Cyndaquil (mind you, this is before there were individualized Pokemon icons). The Cyndaquil looked normal, but it was Level 5 with only 1 HP left with only two attacks: "Leer" and "Flash". I don't know why they named him "HURRY", but at the time, I just disregarded it. The most eerie thing was that, despite my volume being at max, none of the Pokemon he had said their usual cries. Just pure silence.

Having enough of the team, I closed it. I was parked at what appears to be a room inside Bellsprout Tower. However, for some reason, there were no NPCs around. Even more eerie was that the "pillar" in the middle didn't move at all, as if just leaning on its side. There was no music at all, and there was no exit or ladder, or least I thought there wasn't.

I walked around for a few minutes but can't seem to find a way out. This was certainly not a room I've seen in the Bellsprout Tower before. I've tried checking my items for an Escape Rope, but the bag was completely empty. There wasn't any Wild Pokemon either.

Finally, I've managed to find a ladder, which turned out to be behind the "pillar". The screen turned black and the music finally started playing. I had a sudden chill, as I recognize that melody I heard to be the theme you hear when you listened to the radio at the Alph Ruins where the Unown are at.

I immediately realize that it wasn't a loading transition, but rather I was in a dark room and would need Flash. Before I took care of that though, I immediately checked my Pokegear to change the radio to something more pleasant, but it turns out that there was no Radio card, or even a Phone nor Time cards. There was only a Map card in which Gold ("..." from earlier, and I will call him Gold from now on) was just walking in a midst of black.

I recall that Cyndaquil has Flash, so I turned off my Pokegear and made Cyndaquil use Flash. I didn't see any message saying "HURRY has used Flash!" or anything like that. The room just became lit just like that, and I soon regretted it. The room was a chilling blood-red with a linear gray path heading south. The ladder I used to go up/down was not there at all.

I had no choice but to head south. The screen got darker every 20 steps I made, until I finally made it to the end, which appears to be a sign. I read the sign, which said "TURN BACK NOW".

Suddenly, I was asked to answer YES/NO, but there was no question asked. I chose YES as I do not know what it was asking, and the screen went black again, making a "ladder climbed" sound. The Unown Radio music stopped, and in a few seconds was replaced with the not-as-creepy Poke Flute radio music.

I was in another dark room, but I held my breath and used Flash again. Suddenly, it said that "HURRY has fainted!" which was odd since I recall that there was no status conditions like Poison on him, and I clearly wasn't in a battle. I checked my Pokemon quickly and suddenly he's no longer in my party. In fact, after a bit of investigating, none of my Pokemon are there, but instead all replaced with Level 10 Unown. I did the same thing as before and spelled out the Unown. My then team of Unown spelled "HEDIED".

Either way, after that creepy change, the room was lit to reveal myself in a very small room that appears to be only four squares big. The walls of that room were gray bricks, as if I was inside something that was hollowed out. Outside that room appears to be a bunch of graves similar to the ones in Pokemon Red/Blue. I've walked around that small room and pressed A but nothing happened.

I've already concluded that this was clearly a hacked game and some sadistic **** sold it to Gamestop. However, my curiosity kept me going. I checked the trainer profile of "..." again only to find out that the sprite of Gold was missing his arms. He also seems to appear less smug, but rather seems more sad and empty in a way that I do not know how to describe. For some reason, it also now said that he has 24 badges, which was clearly impossible.

After a few minutes of aimless wondering, my character suddenly spun and did the Escape Rope spinning animation. Instead of flying up though, my character spun downwards slowly, as if sinking.

After that screen, the music stopped. After finally landing, the overworld sprite of Gold is coloured differently now. Instead of the usual red colour he dons, he appears completely white now, including his skin. It's as if he came straight from the colorless Game Boy games placed into a colored background of the Gameboy Color. I checked his profile, and now, while now is as white as his overworld sprite, he lost his legs and has what appears to be bloody tears from his eyes. It also says he now has 32 badges, which now starts to disturb me as this change of number seems to represent something important.

I also checked my Pokemon, which this time contains 5 Unowns and a Level 100 Celebi without a nickname. The Unown are this time Leveled 15 and spelled out "DYING". I checked the Celebi's profile. It was a shiny Celebi, except there's only half of the sprite. One leg, one arm, one eye. It only has one attack: "Perish Song".

The area I was in itself was the Sprout Tower with the immobile pillar as before, except everything is apparently red now. I walked north for what felt like forever. Eventually, I finally encountered some generic men and women NPC. They were all lined up to the side just facing the long slantish pillar in the middle. They were also white, and nothing happens when I try to speak to them. I kept on going north until eventually the pillar finally appears chopped off, with a transparent Red in that spot. I went up to Red and without even pressing A, I was suddenly engaged and finally in a battle.

The music starts again, which it sounds like the Unown Radio music again, but played backwards. Gold's battle backsprite matches his front one with the bloody eyes, white skin, and lack of arms, while Red's sprite was the same as before in GSC except transparent. The text simply said "wants to battle!" as if he has no name, and both of us only have one Pokemon each, which is weird as I swear I had six with the Unowns. My shiny Celebi came out, conveniently with half-a-sprite for the back sprite also. The "Shiny" noise and animation was different, as the sounds it made sound like multiple "Screech" attacks used consecutively. Red sent out a seemingly normal male Pikachu, except he is Level 255 and his sprite seems sad and has tears in his eyes.

Rather than the usual "FIGHT/ITEM/PKMN/RUN" menu, I was only given the option to use the Attacks. Since Celebi only has one, I chose it. Naturally, since Pikachu was Level 255, he went first.

"PIKACHU used CURSE!", lowering his Speed and increasing his other Stats. I'm not even sure if Pikachu could even use Curse.

"CELEBI used PERISH SONG!" In three turns, both Pokemon get KO'd - not like I have a choice.

At this point, it didn't even go back to the Fight menu, as the battle just continued without me. Also note that there was no animations at all for some reason.

"PIKACHU used FLAIL!", which didn't do much damage despite his Level and boost as his health was maxed.

"CELEBI used Perish Song!" Nothing happens as it was already used.

"PIKACHU used FRUSTRATION!", which did a **** of damage, knocking Celebi down to less than 10 HP.

"CELEBI used Pain Split!", which surprised me as Celebi didn't even have that attack in the first place. Now Celebi and Pikachu have about 150 HP.

"PIKACHU used MEAN LOOK!" Not like that did anything.

As expected, due to the effects of Perish Song, my Celebi fainted. Except in the text, it said "CELEBI has died!" and instead of the ordinary drop off the screen animation, the CELEBI backsprite just vanished. For some reason, the Pikachu was still up even with Perish Song and it didn't count as my lost. Pikachu used one more different attack beyond the 5 attack limit:

"PIKACHU used DESTINY BOND!"

Afterwards, it said "PIKACHU has died!", with a slow fade-out animation. Apparently, I was the winner, as the transparent Red Sprite showed up and said ".........."

At that point, I just freaked out, as that transparent Red sprite was suddenly beheaded, leaving nothing but his transparent body. The battle then ended at that point and faded out along with the music.

I'm back in the overworld, with another change to the Gold sprite - he's now as transparent as Red's overworld sprite. I quickly checked Gold's profile, where this time the only thing remains of him is his head, with a transparent skin. The head was zoomed in a bit, showing a black void in his eyes. It now stated that he now has 40 badges. I then backed out and checked my Pokemon. They were all Level 20 Shiny Unown, which when spelled out, read "NOMORE".

I was at what I now know is next to the end. There was apparently no music playing, but for some reason I still felt like something was there that could be heard. I was back in my room in New Bark Town. Maybe finally I get to play this game properly, but who am I kidding. I knew that sadistic **** must have done something. I "walked" around my room to interact with things, as I'm a bit afraid to go down the stairs to see what was awaiting down there. Note I said "walked", as while the background was moving, Gold was not moving his transparent limbs at all while doing so, just floating like those ghosts you see in Diamond/Pearl.

As expected, the radio, computer, and TV did not work, so I had no choice but to go down the stairs. I ended up in the same lower level room of my house. Everything appears normal, except mom isn't home. After failing to interact with anything in this room, I decided to go outside. To my surprised, that door leading outside at the south didn't work, and instead I just walk straight through it to a void. I continued moving south to see what the **** was going on. My house vanishes as I head south into the void. It was creepy as when I entered the void, the outline on Gold's transparent sprite turned white to contrast with the pitch black. Eventually, I reached a white area and Gold's sprite turned black and transparent again. I continued south without thinking of stopping at all.

After a long trek south, I finally encountered something. It was GOLD's regular sprite. I talked to it. He said "Good bye forever ...." (notably with a space inbetween the forever and ....), and vanished. As that happened, it said "??? used NIGHTMARE" which at that point, I would not deny that being possible. Gold did another Escape Rope animation spinning slowly downwards like before.

I'm now back into that small hollowed-out room surrounded by graves earlier. Or at least I say I was back there, as there's no sprite anymore. I tried to walk around but nothing moved - not even wall bumping noise. I checked my trainer profile with absolutely no Gold sprite left. It said I have 0 badges and all the pictures of the Johto Gym Leaders at the bottom were replaced with skulls.

I checked my Pokemon, which were all Level 25 Unown. As expected, it spelled out a phrase that I dared to read. "IMDEAD"

As soon as I went back to the overworld, the room I supposedly was in was then covered with the same blocks as the walls. I then figured out what exactly that room was when the final text was said: "R.I.P. ..."

That room was a big grave, surrounded by other grave. Gold has already been dead. He died presumably a few years after he defeated Red.

He was a young trainer who, despite his efforts in collecting so many badges and attempts at becoming a Pokemon master, was still unable to avoid the inevitable fate of death, and his efforts were eventually forgotten by the next generation.

I was unable to escape from that text no matter what I pressed. I tried resetting the game, and the same thing happened, at which I then finally decided to give up on that horrible nightmare.
After that experience, I will never look at the "gimmick" Unown the same way again. They say that only the first generation have folk tales and legends, but the second generation have shown me how unpleasant the truth can be. I eventually enjoyed SoulSilver immensely, but I still can't unthink what that rigged game have told me.

You scared yet or laughed you should be... the ironic thing is that I played SoulSilver before and after reading this I never looked at SoulSilver the same way again I only think about what happened in the story. O_O

Well Tomorrow is the Match for Third Place. Spain defeated Paraguay the final score was 0-1 and Argentina lost to Germany the final score was 0-4 I felt sorry for Argentina I really wanted them to win. In the Semifinal the match was Uruguay vs Holanda, I really wanted Uruguay to win but they lost to the Netherlands aka The Orange Machine. The final score was 2-3, Uruguay lost by one point. In the Semifinal match Espana vs Alemania, Spain pulled out an amazing victory the final score was 0-1. It was amazing Spain's team didn't allow the Germans to make a goal but Germany played good. For third place it's going to be Uruguay vs Alemania, I can't decide Germany is good but so is Uruguay. We'll see At July 10 at 2:30 PM. For the final for the World cup It's going to be Espana vs Holanda this is going to be good it's going to be the Orange Machine vs the Spaniards. I hope that Spain wins because I don't want the Netherlands to win because they defeated Brazil and Uruguay. It's at July 11 at 2:30 PM on Univision. Well if you all didn't see the Copa Mundial it was amazing Espana won defeated Holanda at the last minute of the second extended quarter they finally scored. Holanda almost made a goal but the Spain's goalie's foot moved the ball away from the goal post. In the ceremony they had Shakira sing and other performers it was awesome. Holanda wanted to win so bad did you see the coach he took off the second place medal and put in his pocket at least they got second place. Espana was so happy so was their queen I think she was there and the king of Holanda was there too. She was so happy and the facing on those players so happy because they worked hard to win the cup and had passion for the sport too. They deserve it until next 4 years will they be good, the World Cup to me was better than the Superbowl. Viva Espana!! The next 4 years the next world cup will be held in BRAZIL, let's hope they get better to win in their own country.

Today is July 2. 2010 today is the beginning of the final four of the world cup I really excited because Brazil is facing Holland. Brazil vs Holland (Brasil vs Holanda) was today at July 2 at 10 AM. On the last matches Slovakia vs Holland (Eslovaquia vs Holanda) the final score was 1-2 it surprised me because Slovakia defeated Italy and sent them home but now Italy was avenged by Holland. The other match was Brazil vs Chile the match was as I expected Brazil defeated Chile the final score was 3-0. WOW! The other match was really long Paraguay vs Japan (Paraguay vs Japon) they had two original quarters but no one made a goal. Then later they had two extended quarters but still no one made a goal. Then came the penalty kicks each team had to make 5 goals, Paraguay went first they made it so did Japan but later one of the teammates of Japan mess up the shot and missed thus causing Paraguay to win. It was a good match and I felt sorry for Japan because the fans and the players were crying they wanted to win so bad. The final match was Spain vs Portugal (Espana vs Portugal) in my surprise Spain won by one point the final score 1-0 Portugal tried their best. Today is a sad day for me because Brazil lost to Holland by one point, the final score was 2-1 Brazil did try it's best to try to make a point but Holland's defense was to strong and they made two goals by corner kicks when brazil made a real goal on Holland but in the end it didn't matter. Brazil is still number one to me even though they lost today and there is always next four years. the other match I was really excited since Brazil lost I wanted Uruguay to win against Ghana so that they can face Holland and defeated them to avenge Brazil. It really close because the score was 1-1 and they even had extended quarters like Japan vs Paraguay. It all came down to five penalty kicks Uruguay made one so did Ghana but at the third and fourth goal that Ghana messed up and either kicked too low or didn't kick hard enough thus causing them to lose against Uruguay and Uruguay also missed their third goal the player kicked it too high. I felt sorry also for Ghana because the fans and Players started crying after they lose but they tried their best and they did make it this far. Tomorrow matches are Argentina vs Germany ( Argentina vs Alemania) I really want Argentina to win but this is going to be a really tough hurdle for Argentina because Germany loves to play soccer but so does Argentina. We'll see who'll win tomorrow At July 3 at 10 Am. The other match is going to be Spain vs Paraguay (Espana vs Paraguay) I hope that Spain will win and later face either Argentina or Germany. This Match is on July 3 at 2:3o PM. Anticipation is building up I'll report more on the Copa Mundial. GGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you don't know Spanish that means the World Cup of FIFA South Africa 2010. Today, is a sad day for people who are fans of the US soccer team because they lost to Ghana the final score was 1-2. The Team did put a good fight in the game but in the first 5 minutes into the game Ghana made the first goal in the game and later USA but in the last extended second Ghana made the deciding goal and US couldn't make a goal like the game against Argelia. This morning Uruguay defeated South Korea the final score was 2-1. South Korea did better in the World Cup than North Korea because they made it to the final eight.Tomorrow the games are England vs Germany or in Spanish (Inglaterra vs Alemania) this is going to be a good match up but I think Germany might win this match because they love soccer and they did good against the other teams in the group D. That Match starts tomorrow on June 27 at 10 AM on Univision. The other match I'm going to see is Argentina vs Mexico on this match I'm hoping for Argentina to crush Mexico for simple reason. Argentina is a really good team and not to offend Mexico soccer team lovers I just don't like them because their just too confident on themselves thinking their all that but I can at least admit that their kind of good. That Game is on tomorrow on June 27 at 2:30 PM on Univision. The other team match up are Slovakia vs Holland (Eslovaquia vs Holanda). If you are not familiar to soccer Slovakia is the team that sent Italy back home that was a sad day for me :-(. That match starts on June 28 at 10 AM on Univision and I hoping that Slovakia wins. The other match up I'm really anticipating Brazil vs Chile this is going to be a good match because Brazil is one my teams that I hope to win the Copa Mundial but I can't count out Chile because their a good team but we'll see on June 28 at 2:30 PM. The other match is Paraguay vs Japan (Paraguay vs Japon) this is going to be good to because I can't decide who will win. Japan is good with long shot goals and Paraguay is good close goals and that is at June 29 at 10 AM. the final match before the four finals is going the anticipating match ever its going to be Spain vs Portugal (Espana vs Portugal) I can't decide who will win this one either it's at June 29 at 2:30 PM. The Final four is going to be Uruguay vs Ghana, Uruguay is going to beat Ghana hands down that is going to be on July 2 at 2:30 PM. The other finals are going to be decided late this week but the times are on July 3 at 10 Am, July 2 at 10 AM, and the other is going to be July 3 at 2:30. The teams I hope to win the World Cup are Brazil, Argentina, Spain or Portugal, and England or Germany. The teams I hoped would have made were US and Italy but sadly they were sent home. The team I hope to take the Copa home is either Brazil or Argentina we'll see soon on July 11 at 2:30 PM so be sure to watch it and not miss it. It's going to be a good soccer match between two of the greatest teams in the world and only one can take it home.

Today was a good because yesterday I got out of school early because of the snow. When I got home it started snowing lightly and it wasn't sticking so I thought it's not got to snow that much. Man, was I wrong it started snowing really hard last night and to the morning it was still snowing a lot. When I looked outside there was a lot snow in my backyard and front yard. I started recording from my cellphone when my parents and brother star ted shoveling the snow, I started saying random things in the video it was funny. Like I said oh, there's my brother what's he doing. Oh, he cleaning the cars windows nothing special there." Then later the day I went outside to clean the driveway and have fun in the snow. Then later I went back inside the house and then later the day I went outside again to have fun in the snow again. When I went outside my dad said I had to help him clear the snow from the cars. It wasted my time from having fun but I did finish making my tunnel through a giant snow hill, my dad made from shoveling the driveway. I can't wait to have fun tomorrow because if my aunt comes to my house after the roads are cleared.Me and cousins will have a snowball fight and ride down a hill with my sled. At my house there was 2 ft of snow in my neighborhood. That's a lot for me because it snowed a lot in the Blizzard of 2009 and it snowed more in the Blizzard of 2010. I didn't except this snow storm to be the Blizzard of 2010. This Blizzard shock me and so did how many inches of snow fell.

This is so funny because there is a librarian at my school that no one likes she's really annoying. Today in the morning,me and Thug2Wasteland were on the computer at the school library looking at the hero tournament finals and discussed who will win. Later, more people and friends started coming to see what were doing and the later guess who came by the librarian she told thug2wasteland to log off the computer and she said next time he's on another inappropriate website she'll turn his name to the administrator so he can't log on the computer forever. Thug2Wasteland said that she's after him or just doesn't like him because he says"why doesn't she check someone else everyone else is ether playing games on y8 or is on youtube. He's so mad about that and I said that's just messed up. Then, during lunch Thug2Wasteland wasn't doing anything inappropriate and out of know where the librarian was seeing what we were doing and he says I'm not doing anything illegal and she leaves. The messed up thing was that there were two people siting across from us playing video games on the computer and she didn't come to them and say that they should log off no she must hate Thug2Wasteland. I can't wait to see what happens tomorrow.

I don't understand why the votes for the apprentice from starwars: the force unleashed has fewer votes than Niko Bellic from GTA 4. How can he will win? The Apprentice has better powers and weapons than Niko Bellic. Niko can only use human weapons like a rocket launcher, when the apprentice has a lightsaber and he can use the force.The apprentice can easily kill Niko in a fight. The games are different starwars: the force unleashed is a good game to play when you want excitement. when GTA 4 is good to play when you want kill people or do some other things. GTA 4 gets boring when you beat the game. Starwars is fun to over and over again if you want to have fun. That is why I think that The Apprentice from Starwars is a better character than Niko Bellic. That's my opinion about who should get the most votes.
